Configuring DHCP Server and Relay Settings

The DHCP Layer 2 Relay feature permits Layer 3 Relay agent functionality in 

Layer 2 switched networks. The switch supports L2 DHCP relay 

configuration on individual ports, link aggregation groups (LAGs) and 

VLANs. For information about Layer 2 and Layer 3 DHCP Relay, see 

By default, the DHCP server is disabled, and no address pools are configured. 

You must create at least one address pool and enable the DHCP server to 

allow the switch to dynamically assign network information to hosts with 

DHCP clients that broadcast requests. 
The DHCP server can lease a maximum of 256 addresses.
